Periwinkle…

Tuesday 17 January 2012

There is no rhyme or reason for this post… I just felt like posting a bit of colour to brighten up my day! I was going through some of my inspiration folders over the weekend and realised I save a lot of pictures featuring periwinkle blue. It’s the kind of colour that instantly uplifts my mood! Are you a fan of periwinkle? Would you use it in your home?

  5. Gorgeous, yes love this colour. I'm not a huge purple fan, but there is just enough purple mixed with blue to make periwinkle soft and pretty. xxx

  6. Ooo these pictures are so pretty!!! i have to say I'm not the hugest fan of purple so I wouldn't use this in my house, but it's one of those things that I admire (if done right) in someone else's house.

  7. Periwinkle blue, not purple hues is certainly my favorite color besides white. Those pictures are so gorgeous! I might just stare at these for awhile. Thanks for posting.
